Patient's question:
Testicles have a feeling of dropping, upon checking, it turned out that varicocele had occurred on the left side. We just got married and are planning to have children. How effective are home remedies for treating varicocele?Doctor's answer:
For the patient's condition, it is likely caused by frequent sexual activity during puberty, leading to varicocele. In such cases, it is necessary to have a thorough examination of the spermatic cord through color Doppler ultrasound at a hospital's surgical department. If the condition is not severe, using a decoction of safflower and Poria to steam and wash the area can help stabilize blood circulation and improve the condition. If the condition is more serious, surgical treatment will be required. Varicocele is prone to recurrence, so long-term medication is necessary. For male patients, it is important to immediately seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, maintain personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
